For details, refer to the Software Guide (PDF file) of the supplied PIXELA's software. - Mac OS users: Use Finder to transfer music files from the [MUSIC] folder on the supplied VIXIA CD-ROM to the memory card. Refer to About the music files (A 239) for the folder structure of the memory card. • At the time of purchase, Eye-Fi cards contain the necessary network configuration software. Be sure to install the software and complete the required configuration setup before you initialize the Eye-Fi card prior to using it with this camcorder. 42 Š Preparations
